Thank you for visiting my personal website. I am rebuilding this page from the ground up to include information about my personal, community, and professional interests and activities. I live and work in the Austin, Texas area, working in the education industry and performing music in my spare time. I am deeply involved in land conservation, working on several projects and initiatives that focus on enhancing and conserving the landscape at the Balcones Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge near Austin, as well as working with several land trusts and other conservation nonprofits to help protect the natural beauty of the Texas Hill County, and keep open spaces protected for wildlife, education, and recreation around the US.
